    Minecraft Note Blocks can seem very difficult to wrap your brain around, but if you follow easy Note Block Redstone Tutorial, I promise note blocks will seem a lot less difficult, and far more simple than you realized!

    Here's the notes I wrote for the first part of the Tetris theme I used as an example in the video:
    22----17--18--20----18--17--
    15----15--18--22----20--18--
    17----17--18--20----22----18----
    15----15
    The numbers represent the number of times you have to right click the note block, the dashes represent the number of redstone ticks needed between each note.

    Noteblock tips :
    Divide your clicking pattern by 4
    (Click 4 notes, click another 4 notes, and so on and so for)
    That way, you won't get confused which number are you right now and it let you build faster

      Half notes uses 8 ticks and whole note uses 12. Which means Half note is 2 redstone repeaters on 4 ticks and 3 redstone repeaters with 4 ticks for whole notes.

    • @familycraftdad
      @familycraftdad  2 роки тому +1

      You can't, sadly. Really would love to make a mod that plays the note for the duration of the redstone pulse, would be a fun challenge. Till then, if it's needed, depending on the instrument, you could just repeat the note every tick. Doesn't sound awesome, but sometimes it does the job ha
